Photography, poetry, and musings by Emily Ung.

#18 – (Dis)integrate.

Nikon F90 | Kodak Portra 400

(Dis)intergrate

I wish to melt into a puddle

Of my blood, sweat and tears;

To wash away my sin with your guilt

(Or lack thereof); To rid myself

Of doubt and fear.

 

Because – at this point and

In this very moment –

I have fueled more hate and distaste

Than love and life

In my being, and the only way

To relieve me is the one thing

I am unknown to.

 

My shortcomings fill

This tall tunnel I stand in

And my disappointment stares

Me in the face and dares

To tear apart all I stand for.

Even in this lack of light

I see my failures with clarity –

And nothing scares me more

Because I don’t know what I stand for

Anymore.

 

 

With love,

Emily.
